Subject: [Snort-users] learning snort

I am in the process of studying for the GCIA second exam which covers snort
setup and use.  I have been reading the mailing list, snort documentation
and playing with a small controlled snort setup. Although RTFM is great, I
learn better by actually doing hands on things.  I am using a packet
crafting tool like hping2 to watch and learn how snort works.  I have been
reading about tools like snot which use the snort configuration and build
packets based on the configuration.  This seems like an ideal way to learn

        I think you're thinking of sneeze.  It didn't work for me when I tried
it, but I didn't dig very deep into it.  It used to be in the contribs
section of the snort.org site, but I don't see it there anymore, so
perhaps it has been retired.  A google search for "snort sneeze" found
the perl script though.
